Is America the Modern Nineveh?
America has greatly sinned against God through abortion, homosexuality, adultery, rampant pornography and fornication. We have no fear of God, and America is rapidly becoming a pagan nation. Our only hope is to humble ourselves in fasting and prayer. Nineveh was a great city. In fact, the Bible states that it was so vast it …

Fast for the Little Ones
God sees far beyond what our limited minds can comprehend. For the most part, whenever we hear Joshua’s words, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord,” (Josh. 24:15), we think of our spouses, our children, maybe even our grandchildren. God sees generations. In the more recent corporate fasts at Free Chapel, …

Jentezen Franklin: Follow God’s Priorities
It seems unnecessary to point out how God’s priorities are seldom our priorities. That is the difference in the nature of man and the nature of God. He even said so: “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts,” (Isa. 55:9, …

Jentezen Franklin: Put on a Garment of Praise
You never forget the feeling of sorrow and loss that occurs when someone close to you dies. I loved my father dearly. When he passed away in 1991, it took me weeks to get beyond the initial impact of grief and mourning. Each day when I awoke, that sense of loss would hit me again …

Jentezen Franklin: Why Is Fasting So Hard?
It is still amazing to me that food was the enticement used to cause Adam and Eve to sin, resulting in the fall of mankind. I find it equally interesting that Jesus began His earthly ministry—to redeem us from sin—by abstaining from food. I imagine it was an extraordinary sight for John the Baptist to …

Jentezen Franklin: God’s Coming to Dinner?
If we are not careful we can allow life to get us into the same old ruts and routines without even realizing it. Our relationship with the Lord can suffer the same fate. When we don’t do what it takes to stay sharp and sensitive to the Holy Spirit, our praise, worship, offerings and even …

Jentezen Franklin: Every Assignment Has a Birthplace

Fasting: How Much? How Long? How Healthy?
God’s Word is full of marvelous testimonies of those who succeeded in fasting. It was during a 40-day fast that Moses received the Ten Commandments (Ex. 34:27–28).
